For the year second half, the company plans to expand the Lion Gloves range, whose applications include the protection of the hands in many jobs: driving, agri- culture, DIY, industry, handling, etc. ·New model 500F (Ruvigrab Series) Gahibre has also expanded its Ruvigrab range with the new model 500F, a glove with spandex nylon support that incorpo- rates a foamy latex coating. This develop- ment distinguishes itself by its perfect hand fit, comfort and high mechanical strength (EN 388). Thanks to its construction with nylon and ‘foam’ treatment, a glove, as light as comfortable, has been obtained. It is available in sizes 9 and 10. With over 30 years of service, Gahibre per- severes in its aim to “provide better every- day safety solutions and efficient service”. The firm has got a wide range for hands protection and clothing against cold and water. Since early this year, Gahibre, manufac- turer of gloves and protective clothing, from Leon (Spain), is the exclusive distrib- utor of the trademark Lion Gloves, brand specializing in the manufacture of synthet- ic leather gloves. The Lion Gloves offer places on the market a new generation of gloves advantageous- ly replacing the traditional natural leather gloves. While natural leathers are irregu- lar in thickness, being also subjected to fre- quent fluctuations in price and quality, synthetic leather maintains consistent quality, in addition to regular price. The Lion Gloves series already represents an added value with respect to natural leather. Among the advantages of the syn- thetic material may be counted: -Elasticity from the first time of use, result- ing in increased adaptability, comfort and handling dexterity. This avoids the fatigue inflicted by other more rigid gloves and that may be the origin of accidents either because the user refuses to use them or due to the stress of prolonged use. With much better touch than natural leather gloves, synthetic series of Lion Gloves have the same strength as the leather gloves. They are certified to EN 388 (mechanical risks), with a PPE Category II (medium risk). Its performance profile is 3, 1, 2, 1 (values corresponding to abra- sion, cut, tear and puncture). The model 322 PU is a classic glove, driver type, unparalleled in the Spanish market, thanks to its exclusive material, and which is characterized by allowing complete free- dom of movement from the start point of use.
